Mockingbird

4/10. Three set of people: a woman, a couple, and a man who lives with his mother are mysteriously given large bulky VHS cameras (it takes place in 1995) on their doorsteps and told to "keep filming." In addition the man is told has been entered in a contest where he can win 10 thousand dollars.

This starts out as an interesting premise but doesn't really go anywhere. The woman and the couple stay in their homes as they begin to be terrorized by bangings at the door and sinister telephone calls but are given very little to do.

The man is given orders to leave his home and perform a variety of tasks in full clown suit and makeup and this is a little more interesting, but it doesn't really carry the movie.

Eventually it all culminates in a twist that I didn't see coming, but thought was full of plot holes and didn't make much sense.

I wouldn't necessarily say avoid this one but don't look for anything groundbreaking or very cohesive and entertaining.

Im not certain what you all expect from a found footage film but you all act like prudes. Ive seen this a few times and everytime i do im not disapointed. If your looking for emmy winning movies stay away from FF.

ANYWAY the movie is scary the feel of it from the start is so eerie. I felt bad for mr lenny for being a pathetic human but with a ma like that what do you expect lol. I felt worse for the college student i feel like she had way more terror thrown her way. Including the ending which i wont spoil.

Give it a try its not bad by any means blair witch had shaky cam this is way better than that filming. If your not a prudy little prick looking for a big time FF film youll enjoy this.

Who pays for movies like this that's what I kept asking myself being bored with this film it literally goes no where boring movie damn shame for Blum house

What a mess from the director of The Strangers. Keep filming or someone will die, the film actually has an interesting plot and concept but sadly turns into a mess with its ridiculous ending and an insult to the audience The SCARE here is similar to The Strangers and some of the scenes are quite effective and intense in delivering that but don't go in expecting any GORES here. The film starts out pretty interesting and engaging but gets more tiring as it goes and ends with a hugely unsatisfied and stupid twist. Overall, this is one of those found footage films that fails to deliver its premise and enough thrills or scares and is ultimately just a waste of time. >>C-<<

The idea of a couple of people have to film something over a strange contest is a interesting idea, but the actual story feels similar to the director first movie. The story is kind of like the found footage version of The Strangers with three characters being targeted and harass by an unknown person. Its easily predictable and there's a couple of cheap jump scares throughout the movie. There's also a minor side plot of Leonard doing a bunch of random things by the unknown person, but that isn't that interesting to watch. Also the movie spends a lot of time with the three characters hiding or thinking of a plan.

I have to say that the ending is really stupid and doesn't make any sense. No spoilers, but its really bad compared to The Gallows.
